Botwiki

There’s a plenty of tutorials for creating online bots out there, but the information is pretty scattered.

There are sites like bothub.org, botpad.org/p/bot_resources (currently unavailable), bot.community or even botdb.gameology.org/bot-list – and plenty of assorted Twitter lists collecting the various Twitter bots, but what I’d really love to see is a more complete website/wiki where one could find tutorials, articles, APIs, datasets and other useful resources – and also browse other people’s creations.

Another part of the Botwiki project is the @botwikidotorg Twitter account. This is actually a bot that listens to @ mentions and if your account is whitelisted, it will retweet your tweet. The main use is for the Botwiki maintainers to be able to tweet about updates to the wiki without having to switch to the @botwikidotorg account. There is an open issue on Github to discuss other uses.
